Trafco’s team, which is composed of highly experienced engineers and technicians specialising in the field of cable manufacturing, can supply know-how and engineering in all kinds of cables production, technical and economical feasibility studies, and complete turnkey jobs for cable factories.

Sikora AG

Sikora AG, a manufacturer and worldwide vendor of measuring and control tech- nology for the wire and cable industry, will present cutting edge technology at wire Russia 2011. A highlight on the Sikora stand will be the new X-Ray 6000 series for the measurement of wall thickness, eccentricity, diameter and ovality at insulating and jacketing lines. The X-Ray 6000 includes XLL-X-ray tubes (eXtra-Long-Life tubes) and provides a selectable measuring rate of 1 to 3Hz (optional 10,100Hz). Sikora will also showcase sophisticated equipment for optical fibre measurement in the drawing tower. The Fiber Laser 6003 measures the diameter of optical fibres with an accuracy of ±0.05 micrometres while providing information on the ovality, fibre position, spinning and vibration frequency as well as amplitude.
